During the rest of the Christmas holidays, Ryan stayed at No. 12 Grimmauld Place in the same room he had lived in during the previous summer vacation. During this period, he spent a lot of time working on making some magic props for the Order of the Phoenix. By the way,
A lot of effort has been invested in developing the next generation of upgraded magic defense bracelets.
In the last week of the vacation, Ryan finally finished the production of the upgraded version of the bracelet: the main body is gold, and the top is inlaid with mithril brought from the world of "The Lord of the Rings" and the secret library of Hogwarts using the wrong gold and silver craftsmanship.
The magic runes are mixed and cast with imitation orichalcum refined using the technology inside. In addition, several pieces of cut red and blue spinels are inlaid as magic nodes.
When he came to the study room on the second floor with the finished product, he heard Ron's voice coming from inside: "Why are you helping Ryan with his homework but not willing to show us the paper? I know you are his girlfriend,
But this is a bit too much for you."
"Because Ryan is busy with business, and he has already mastered all this knowledge. He is just busy working for the Order of the Phoenix and has no time to write. Although I can't help him with what he is doing, I can help him solve some problems here.
Don't worry about it." At this point, Hermione paused. "But your problem is that you haven't mastered this knowledge at all. Don't forget that we have to take the O.W.LS exam this year. You can't have the same study attitude as before."
Hearing this, Ryan quickly opened the door and interrupted their argument, and then showed them his new product. Just as Ryan was introducing the new product, suddenly Sirius opened the door and walked in with a happy face, and at the same time said
He also shouted: "Good news, we received great news today."
"Ryan, why are you here?" Sirius was stunned when he saw Ryan, because Ryan has been staying in the alchemy laboratory almost all the time except for meal time in the past few days. So now that he suddenly saw Ryan, Sirius was naturally
A little surprised.
"My new defensive bracelet is out. Even if it is attacked by the snake again, it can give the user a chance to draw the wand." After saying that, he took out the gold bracelet and handed it to Sirius.
"Ah, this is great. When can we get one for everyone on field duty? Don't worry, money is not a problem. I can afford it no matter how much you buy, and I can help you even with the materials you need.
Get it." Sirius took the bracelet and looked at it. With his pure-blood family background, he quickly saw the extraordinary quality of this bracelet.
"Now it's not a matter of cost and raw materials. The core is that the difficulty of manufacturing this upgraded bracelet has reached a new level. Even if I devote myself to it for a month, I can only make one. The reason you have this is because I had the idea to make it before.
I got a blank, so I could process that blank into a finished product in just one week." Ryan explained to Sirius, who was now filled with the aura of a wealthy man, and it took some hard work to restrain his impulse to spend money.
"By the way, what's the good news you just mentioned?" Because he didn't want to continue discussing this issue with Sirius, who was equivalent to an illiterate guy in alchemy, so Ryan started to change the subject and asked what Sirius wanted to say when he came in just now.
"I forgot if you didn't remind me. I was a little excited when I saw your bracelet." Sirius laughed and then said, "Today we got the exact news. The giant tribe that worried us before has completely disappeared. At the same time,
Also missing were three die-hard Death Eaters, and Voldemort was so angry that he tortured a group of Death Eaters with the Cruciatus Curse one by one during the meeting."
"Really?" "When did this happen?" Ron and Harry immediately hugged Sirius and asked questions. Hermione did something to Ryan when the three of them weren't paying attention.
A grimace.
"Disappeared? What's going on?" Harry's voice came over, full of confusion. "After all, they are giants. There are dozens of them so big, and they don't know how to travel using magic.
.In addition, there are three Death Eaters, how could they all disappear without anyone else knowing about it!"
"But that's the fact." Sirius also showed confusion on his face. "We got the news that the Russian Ministry of Magic first discovered a group of Muggles who had been kidnapped by Death Eaters and were rescued. Then based on these clues, we found
We went to the giants’ former camp, but only six giants who were scared to death were found there. The only thing they could say was that they were all dead.”
"All dead?" Harry and Ron exclaimed, and Sirius on the other side nodded. "That's right, but members of the Russian Ministry of Magic found nothing except some blood stains that had been frozen into ice in the valley.
Found it. Even after they checked it, they only found traces of defensive magic left by the three Death Eaters before. Other than that, there were no traces of magic."
"You mean, if something attacked these giants and Death Eaters, the attackers could actually achieve their goals in a very short time without using any magic, even three Death Eaters scattered in different places.
Didn't even have enough time to react and issue a warning?" Ron's eyes widened. "God, this is too scary."
"If I'm not wrong, that's it. The Russian Ministry of Magic has now transferred the remaining six giants to other places. At least we don't have to worry about Voldemort drawing them in to cause us trouble." Sirius looked relaxed.
"But, don't you think this is strange?" Hermione couldn't help but ask. "I think this kind of thing shouldn't be common even in the magical world."
"It is indeed uncommon." Sirius nodded. "But similar things have happened in the wizarding world. And now we need to deal with Voldemort and his Death Eaters, so we don't have much energy to focus on how many times this happened.
Thousands of kilometers away on things that have little to do with us."
"Sounds like good news." Ryan thought, at least this way not many people would pay attention to it, and he wouldn't have to worry about what he had done before being discovered.
"By the way, there is good news. St. Mungo's has found an antidote to the snake venom, and Arthur will be discharged from the hospital in the next two days." Sirius finally said.
"This is great!" Ryan and the others said together, and then at the request of Ryan and Hermione, Sirius agreed to take the two of them to St. Mungo's to visit Mr. Weasley in the afternoon.
The sky was nice in the afternoon, and under the rare winter sunshine, a group of three people appeared in front of an old-fashioned red brick department store.
"We're here. This is St. Mungo's. There isn't enough space in Diagon Alley. It's unsanitary to build it underground like the Ministry of Magic. We chose this place so that patients can mix in and come out among the crowd." Sirius looked at the people here curiously.
Ryan and Hermione said.
This department store called Taotao Co., Ltd. looks dilapidated and deserted. There are only a few cracked dummies in the window, wearing wigs crookedly, in different poses, and wearing clothes from at least ten years ago. The dusty door is
They all had big signs saying "Closed for Renovation". Ryan heard people coming and going around muttering: I swear I haven't opened the door since I passed.
Sirius approached the display window and looked up at the ugly dummy. His breath blurred the glass, "Hello... I'm here to see Arthur Weasley." The dummy nodded slightly and said, "Hello... I'm here to see Arthur Weasley."
With their fingers together, the three of them disappeared straight through the glass.
Because it was the Christmas holiday, St. Mungo's still had a festive atmosphere. There were not many patients in the waiting room. Ryan only saw a wizard with a swollen head like a tomato and a witch with purple skin standing next to the sign marked "
In front of the desk with the words "Information Desk".
"Family dispute, huh? I suggest you learn to hide your wand when you quarrel. I have seen you four times in the past six months. Now you two go to the Curses and Damage Department on the fifth floor. I really don't want to see you again."
said the fat, blond, middle-aged woman sitting behind the table.
Do all couples in the wizarding world get along like this? It does look a bit scary. Ryan thought as he went upstairs.
